Use your imagination and the list of available ingredients to concoct something unique or go with one of their tried and true recipes. One recipe that has won countless awards is the Country Girl Cherry, consisting of cherries, house-made chorizo sausage, shredded mozzarella, and marinara. Try another classic in the Cafe Solstice—a pizza with homemade Canadian bacon, pineapple chutney, mozzarella, and a jalapeno cream sauce.
Discussing the pizza only serves to scratch the surface of the great menu here, though. For lunch, you will find favorites in sandwiches, salads, small plates, and main plates. Everything will leave you satisfied, but a crowd favorite continues to be the Gnocchi, which is house-made and accompanied by pistachios, arugula, breadcrumbs, and ricotta cheese. For dinner, you can find many of the same small plates like the fried Brussels sprouts and calamari & country toast, but you can find new and exciting main plates like the Summer Linguini with in-season vegetables atop linguine, garlic, shallots, white wine, and cream.
One of the main goals here is to be accommodating to everyone. This is why you will find options for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free meals. Top everything off with a full bar, which make this a great place to relax as well enjoy meals.
